Apples Vs. Oranges

Verse:
Spend everyday with the lives that we play.
Some say, someday, you can't change our way.
To face all the troubles that some may.
But in the end you still have to pay.
Remnants of past strifes, past lies, past lives.
Still we go on with all that has gone.
But who's to say that with all those past lives.
You're not next in line!
Chorus:
In the end we pretend that these feelings are null, desperation in finding the truth. With a savory sauce of a sticky sweet disguise, we have to come to realize the lie is obtuse! Its all just apples verses oranges anyway!

Goodbyes

When you were gone
I thought you were gone forever
I felt so lost and so useless
Please remember
You know you never even wanted to go
But you left us all behind when you left home
Held your mother as she cried
You promised to come back alive
I begged you "Please, soldier boy, don't die for this.
But at least come back home for one last kiss."
And we laughed and we cried and we said our goodbyes
And on the day that you left, well it just felt like I died
We laughed and we cried and we said our goodbyes
You know, you lied when you said the time would fly
And on our last night together, we drove around
And we listened to all our favorite songs
You know we both thought the same thing:
"I hope this car never stops."
I know they brainwashed you, they told you what to do
Boy, and you trusted every lie that they fed to you
You were such a different man when you finally came home
And the only thing I thought was "Where the fuck did you go?"
And we laughed and we cried and we said our goodbyes
As time went by every day you lied
We laughed and we cried and we said our goodbyes
Please come home soon, I don't want you to die
And one day I got down onto the ground
Pressing my ear to the dirt, I waited for a sound
I didn't hear a goddamn thing, not even your voice in my head
But I wanted to remember every word that you've ever said
And I'm still sorry for those things that I've done wrong
But you promised to come home when I sang you this song
We laughed and we cried and we said our goodbyes
You know, you never even called so why should I try?
We laughed and we cried and we said our goodbyes
I haven't heard your voice in such a long time
We laughed and we cried and we said our goodbyes
You told me that you loved me but you never said why
And though I'm better off without you in mine
Please hold on for your life

Verse:
Who am I , to slip into an alibi?
As if I deserve sweet rewards
Like a caveman or an unchanged light bulb
Yeah, they treat me like the ghost
The ghost to the saged specter speaker
That tinkers with spirits in an old glass ball
Chorus:
Who am I?
Who am I to become?
Monkey-Man swinging from the tree stumps, yeah
Cleaning himself with a paper bag
Yes, yes, yes
Sounds about right me
Yeah…
Verse:
You’re so inverted
Everyone you meet walks away
With the same bemused expression
From your imperfections
So who are you to hurry through
Steep and sliding black holes
Designs impede upon your vision stream
Caught in lack of intellect or information
I don’t know my friend
I don’t know
They treat me like the ghost
The ghost to the saged specter speaker
That tinkers with spirits in an old glass ball

Verse 1:
One somber look took back at the ground.
Off to a place with no light and no sound.
'Twas fated to space, so solemn and cold.
A journey that which, for years shall be told.
Verse 2:
You stare at the stars, well that's where I float.
My ship's a tin can, a celestial boat.
And time does not pass, no days only night.
There's no light, feel my plight and one day I just might.
Run out, of time, that which does not exist.
How to fight the abstract? A fight so fruitless.

The Real Monsters Jupiter, Florida
The Real Monsters started as nothing more than a bunch of marching band geeks attempting to play some damn good music. The resulting concoction was a half punk, half ska, half manbearpig explosion of awesome. The Monsters finally came to be six friends, all insanely talented musicians, intent on nothing more than bringing good music and a good time to anyone who cares to listen. ... more
